Product details
Overview
74LVC377DB,112 from Nexperia is an octal positive-edge-triggered D-type flip-flop with asynchronous data enable (active LOW), operating across 1.2 V to 3.6 V supply, supporting 5.5 V-tolerant inputs for mixed-voltage interfacing, and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation in SO20 (SOT163-1) package. It delivers 8-bit synchronous data latching in digital control, bus buffering, and state-holding applications.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC377DB,112 datasheet, 74LVC377DB,112 pinout, 74LVC377DB,112 application, or 74LVC377DB,112 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1.2–3.6 V VCC range, 5.5 V overvoltage-tolerant inputs, 9.5 ns max propagation delay at 3.6 V/125 °C, 2.0 ns minimum set-up time, and SO20 pin-compatible footprint for legacy LVC logic upgrades.
Technical Context
This device implements eight independent D-type flip-flops sharing a common clock (CP) and global data enable (E) input. Each flip-flop captures Dn on the LOW-to-HIGH CP transition only when E is LOW; outputs retain prior state when E is HIGH.
Its CMOS architecture enables direct interface with TTL-level signals and supports translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains via 5.5 V-tolerant inputs. Operation is specified across -40 °C to +125 °C with static and dynamic parameters fully characterized at both temperature extremes.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | E | Data enable input (active LOW); gates all eight D-to-Q transfers - must be stable ≥2.0 ns before CP rising edge for predictable capture. |
| 2 | Q0 | Output of first flip-flop; driven HIGH/LOW based on D0 state sampled at CP rising edge when E = LOW. |
| 3 | D0 | Data input for Q0; sampled synchronously on CP rising edge only if E = LOW. |
| 4 | D1 | Data input for Q1; functionally identical to D0 with independent output Q1 on pin 5. |
| 5 | Q1 | Output of second flip-flop; matches D1 state captured at same CP edge as Q0. |
| 6 | Q2 | Output of third flip-flop; shares CP and E with all others but operates independently per D2 (pin 7). |
| 7 | D2 | Data input for Q2; one of eight parallel D inputs aligned to corresponding Q outputs. |
| 8 | D3 | Data input for Q3; pin 9 is Q3 - forms first quartet (D0–D3/Q0–Q3) in left half of SO20 package. |
| 9 | Q3 | Output of fourth flip-flop; completes lower-nibble latching group. |
| 10 | GND | Ground reference (0 V) for all internal circuitry and I/O; requires low-impedance PCB plane connection. |
| 11 | CP | Clock input (LOW-to-HIGH edge-triggered); rising edge initiates sampling of all enabled D inputs. |
| 12 | Q4 | Output of fifth flip-flop; begins upper-nibble group (D4–D7/Q4–Q7) on right side of SO20. |
| 13 | D4 | Data input for Q4; electrically isolated but synchronized to same CP and E control. |
| 14 | D5 | Data input for Q5; pin 15 is Q5 - maintains consistent Dn/Qn pairing across all eight channels. |
| 15 | Q5 | Output of sixth flip-flop; matches D5 state captured at CP edge when E = LOW. |
| 16 | Q6 | Output of seventh flip-flop; pin 17 is D6 - ensures full octal symmetry in layout and timing. |
| 17 | D6 | Data input for Q6; positioned adjacent to Q6 for minimized trace skew in high-speed routing. |
| 18 | D7 | Data input for Q7; final D input in octal set; pin 19 is Q7 - completes functional mapping. |
| 19 | Q7 | Output of eighth flip-flop; provides last bit of parallel latch output; used in byte-wide data capture. |
| 20 | VCC | Positive supply rail (1.2–3.6 V); decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 5 mm of this pin for noise immunity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal D-type flip-flop applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC377APWR | TSSOP20 (SOT360-1) package; identical electrical specs but 4.4 mm body width and 0.65 mm pitch - not pin-compatible with SO20. | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs; requires layout revision due to different footprint and thermal profile. | Select when board area is limited and rework of land pattern is acceptable; verify thermal performance at 125 °C with reduced copper exposure. |
| 74LVC574AD,118 | Octal D-type latch (transparent) vs. edge-triggered flip-flop; no clock enable; outputs follow inputs when LE is LOW. | Suitable for simple data capture without precise edge alignment; unsuitable for synchronous pipeline stages requiring strict clock-edge registration. | Choose only for non-critical hold functions where timing predictability is secondary to cost; avoid in clock-domain crossing or high-speed control loops. |
Compared with SN74LVC377APWR, 74LVC377DB,112 offers superior thermal dissipation in SO20 and drop-in replacement for legacy designs, while 74LVC574AD,118 trades edge-triggered precision for transparency - making it unfit for applications requiring deterministic sampling instants.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 74LVC377DB,112 at 3.3 V and +125 °C?
The device guarantees a minimum operating frequency of 120 MHz under those conditions, as confirmed in Table 7 (Dynamic characteristics) of the Rev. 8 datasheet. This value reflects worst-case timing across process, voltage, and temperature corners, ensuring reliable operation in thermally stressed industrial deployments without derating.
Can 74LVC377DB,112 safely interface with 5 V microcontroller GPIOs?
Yes - its inputs are overvoltage tolerant up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level (1.2–3.6 V), allowing direct connection to 5 V outputs without external resistors or level shifters. This capability is explicitly validated in Section 2 (Features and benefits) and Table 4 (Limiting values) of the datasheet.
Is the SO20 package of 74LVC377DB,112 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - Nexperia confirms RoHS compliance and lead-free construction for all SOT163-1 packaged 74LVC377 variants, including 74LVC377DB,112. This is documented in the "Ordering information" table and supported by Nexperia's official material declarations accessible via their product page and compliance portal.
Does 74LVC377DB,112 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on E or CP inputs?
No - the device has no internal weak pull-ups or pull-downs on E or CP. However, in floating-input scenarios (e.g., unconnected enable), external biasing is required to prevent undefined output behavior. The datasheet specifies that E must be stable one set-up time before CP edge; leaving it uncontrolled violates functional requirements in Table 3 (Function table).
